N2  - "Corbalin vihkiäiset : Romaani Ranskan vallankumouksen ajoilta" by Rafael Sabatini is a historical novel written in the early 20th century. The narrative is set during the tumultuous period of the French Revolution and revolves around the main character, mademoiselle de Montsorbier, who faces profound danger as her mother is captured, and her own fate hangs in the balance. As the story unfolds, themes of loyalty, bravery, and the struggle for survival come to light against the backdrop of revolutionary fervor.  The opening of the novel introduces a tense atmosphere as various characters await the reading of names at a revolutionary tribunal. Citizens gather anxiously, and Robert Wolf, the clerk of the court, starts announcing the names of those condemned, stirring fear and despair among the audience. Mademoiselle de Montsorbier stands out as a figure of quiet determination even in the face of tragedy, with her mother's impending capture weighing heavily on her. The scene vividly captures the pervasive dread of the revolution as characters exhibit a mix of resignation, defiance, and hope, setting the stage for the intense personal and political drama that will unfold throughout the novel.
